Hogwarts: This wizard wants to improve too much

After dealing with the matter, Ethan did not rush to Hogwarts immediately.

Anyway, Cassandra and the others were still on the train. Even if Ethan went to school, he would be bored waiting for the school dinner.

And on the train, because it was constantly moving, Ethan could not Apparate directly to the school.

So he found a place and prepared to test the two talents he had just drawn.

Although, after accepting the two talents, the basic information of the two talents appeared in Ethan's mind.

But if you don't use and understand them in reality, you can't master them at all.

See through this talent, just like the name.

It strengthened Ethan's observation ability. His senses, which were already more sensitive after learning the supersensory spell, are now more acute.

You can even predict the opponent's next move based on the opponent's actions to achieve the effect of defeating the enemy.

This point was tested on Helbo.

This is different from Legilimency, after all, Legilimency can also resist the opponent's prying through the brain block.

But this prediction is not limited in this aspect.

It's just that the limitations still exist.

At the beginning, it was indeed possible to predict Helbo's attack, but Helbo soon realized that something was wrong.

If it was crushed by hard power, there would be nothing to say, this is normal.

But every time it was just right to dodge his own attack or offset his own spell.

After confirming that his brain block was activated, Helbo had some guesses.

The subsequent battle turned into confusing the opponent and guessing each other.

It is still very useful to attack unexpectedly when the opponent is unaware.

If the opponent is prepared, this prediction will not have much effect.

In general, the effect of this talent is not bad.

It should be part of the effect after Qiu Zhang took the magic blood.

It's just that because Ethan's buffs are stacked enough, whether it's physical fitness or magic, this effect is also better than her.

Ethan has experimented with the talent of walking on the ground, and it can only take effect when standing on the ground.

Whether it's flying spells to the sky or riding on magical animals, this talent has no reaction at all.

Of course, this talent can still be activated when wearing shoes, and it doesn't mean that you have to step on the ground barefoot.

The effect is also simple and crude, and the speed of movement on the ground is increased, which is actually not very useful.

Mainly because, whose wizards run!

It only has a little effect when dodging attacks, but generally it is defended with spells or spells. The ones who really need to move are ordinary wizards.

Look at Dumbledore, he never moves.

Another effect is that when standing on the ground, the recovery speed of physical strength and magic power will be faster.It's quite fast.

When using Transfiguration to manipulate the earth, it has become more handy and does not consume much magic power.

Ethan speculated that standing on the earth, this talent probably also has an affinity with the earth.

It's just a pity that there are not many spells about the ground, and they are all quite ordinary.

If you want to develop in this area, you either need to extract ancient spells or invent them yourself.

But Ethan is not short of means of attack now, so he will just let it go.

After testing the two talents, Ethan had no reason to stay.

Immediately, he Apparated to Hogsmeade Village.

As soon as he arrived, Ethan cast a few spells on himself.

By the way, as long as it's the first day of school, Hogwarts has never encountered good weather.

It's always windy and rainy, and today is no exception.

Although the weather was bad, there were still quite a lot of wizards coming and going on the street, especially in the tavern.

Although today was not Hogsmeade Day at Hogwarts School, many people chose to come here because of the destruction of Diagon Alley.

But Ethan was not very interested in this aspect, and immediately disappeared into the darkness.

When he arrived at the grounds outside the gate of Hogwarts, the carriages of the Thestrals were already parked outside.

There was no doubt that Cassandra and the others had arrived first.

In response, Ethan did not stay outside, and stepped onto the steps to enter the castle to attend the opening dinner.

"Hello, Professor McGonagall"

When he walked into the gate, the first person he saw was still Professor Cat Cat.

Ethan still respected Professor McGonagall. When he first entered school, she helped him a lot and gave him some special treatment.

Seeing that it was Ethan who came, Professor McGonagall also showed a smile on her face, and immediately asked with concern:

"How is the matter with Gringotts handled?"

Dumbledore also told her that Ethan needed to come late.

Professor McGonagall also expressed understanding, after all, it was such a large amount of gold Galleons.

Not only that, during the Quidditch World Cup, Professor McGonagall also made a small profit with Ethan.

As a die-hard supporter of Quidditch, Professor McGonagall will naturally not be absent from the Quidditch World Cup.

In addition, as a Scotsman, Professor McGonagall is also a fanatical supporter of the Scottish team.

But in the previous several games, Professor McGonagall lost a lot.

Fortunately, because of Ethan, he rushed back to the base and even made a small profit.

So at this moment, he is more concerned about Ethan's situation.

"It's been handled. Gringotts paid 15 million gold Galleons."

There's no need for Ethan to hide this.

"It's done. You go in first. I still have to welcome the new students here."

AlthoughProfessor McGonagall was a little surprised by the number, but she didn't show it. She said it with a normal expression.

"Well, by the way, Professor McGonagall, Harry won't be back for another two days."

"Okay, I got it!"

After parting with Professor McGonagall, Ethan walked directly into the hall.

As usual, the hall is specially decorated on the first day of school every year.

Hundreds of candles floated above the table, illuminating the golden plates and goblets.

The ceiling was enchanted, just like the sky Ethan had just seen outside, with heavy wind and rain, black and purple clouds rolling on it, and as thunder sounded outside, a forked lightning flashed across the ceiling.

At this moment, none of the long tables of the four colleges were quiet. The little wizards were discussing the Quidditch World Cup and the attack on Gringotts.

At the fifth table at the top of the hall, the teachers and staff sat on one side of the table. Dumbledore still sat in the center. They were also communicating something, only Snape was still cold and silent.

As Ethan walked in, most of the wizards' eyes were focused on Ethan, and the noisy scene became quiet.

Ethan was used to this kind of thing, and walked directly to the Ravenclaw long table.

After Ethan sat down, the chattering sounded again.

But Ethan, based on his keen perception, heard that there was now an additional object of discussion, that is, himself. (To read the violent novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Discussing how he got the accurate prediction of the winning team in the Quidditch World Cup, and how many gold galleons he asked Gringotts to pay.

Terry also started to ask Ethan these questions at the first time, because he was born a Muggle this summer.

Even though they, like Michael, earned some gold galleons from making Buffy's brain-stimulating agent from Ethan and could buy tickets for a few games, they did not go.

They only learned about the on-site situation of the game through the wizard newspapers in Diagon Alley.

As for Gene, Ethan also saw him at the game site and helped him win a few games.

Faced with Terry's questions, Ethan also chose some things to say.

Not long after, the door of the auditorium was opened, and the noisy auditorium suddenly became quiet.

Professor McGonagall led the freshmen who were lined up in a long line to the top of the auditorium, stood in a row along the staff table, stopped, and faced all the students in the school.

But they were all wet, as if they had swam from the Black Lake.

And they were all shivering, and it was not known whether it was because of the cold or the tension.

Then it was the old rules, the sorting ceremony.

After the Sorting Hat finished singing, Professor McGonagall read out a name, and he would go up and put on the Sorting Hat to sort the houses. Then when each house welcomed a new student, he would use his palm to

With the last freshman Kevin Whitby being sorted into Hufflepuff, the sorting ceremony came to an end.

At this moment, Dumbledore stood up.

He looked at all the students with a smile, opened his arms and made a welcoming gesture. []

"I have only two words to say to you," he said, his deep voice echoing in the hall, "Eat!"

A sumptuous dinner appeared at the long tables of the four colleges, including the professors' seats.

Everyone can choose their favorite food according to their own preferences.

Since the first day of school is a busy day, coupled with the weather, everyone can't care about what to talk about, and fill their stomachs first.

After eating dessert, the meal is over.

Dumbledore stood up again, smiling at everyone. The buzzing voices in the hall stopped, and only the whistling of the wind and the pounding of the rain could be heard.

"All right!"

"Now that we are all full and satisfied, I must ask for your attention again. I have a few announcements to make."

"Mr. Filch, the administrator, wants me to tell you that this year, several more items have been added to the list of prohibited items in the castle. They are Screaming Yo-Yo balls, Spike Frisbees, and Combo Boomerangs. They can be seen in Mr. Filch's office. Those who are interested can check them out."

When he said this, Dumbledore's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.

Recently, every year, it seems that I have to set a few rules for some little wizards at the start-of-term dinner.

They were all set after Filch came to complain to me.

However, this is almost over. There are still two years left. Just bear with it.

"As before, I want to remind you that students are not allowed to enter the forbidden forest over there, and students below the third grade are not allowed to visit Hogsmeade."

"Finally, I have to tell you with great regret that there will be no House Cup Quidditch this year."

"What?"

A burst of exclamations came from below. There is no doubt that these students love Quidditch.

You can skip practicing spells, skip going to the library, and even copying last night, but you can't skip playing Quidditch.

This is the behavior of a large number of Hogwarts students.

Now that they suddenly heard that the Quidditch House Cup was going to be stopped, how could they calm down?

Especially after just experiencing the Quidditch World Cup, many young wizards learned a few tricks in the game, or figured out a few routines, and were ready to show them off this year.

As a result, this was aborted.

Dumbledore ignored the commotion below and said to himself:

"'This is because a large-scale event will start in October and last throughout the school year, which will take up a lot of teachers' time and energy, but I believe that you will all have a lot of fun from it."Therefore I am very pleased to announce that this year at Hogwarts--"

Before Dumbledore finished his words, there was a deafening thunder in the sky, and at the same time the door of the Great Hall was slammed open.

A man stood at the door, leaning on a long cane in his hand and wrapped in a black traveling cloak.

The little wizards in the Great Hall also turned their heads to look at the sudden stranger, and at the same time a forked lightning flashed across the ceiling, illuminating the stranger.

He took off his hood, shook out his long gray hair, and began to walk towards the staff table.

With every step he took, a hollow thump echoed in the Great Hall. .

At this time, the little wizards also saw his appearance clearly. His face seemed to be carved out of a piece of rotten wood. Every inch of skin seemed to be scarred. His mouth was like a crooked big hole, and the place where the nose should be raised was gone.

And the most terrifying thing was his eyes. One of his eyes was small and black, and looked normal, although it was ugly.

The other eye was big, round like a coin, and showed a bright blue color.

The blue eye kept moving without blinking, turning up and down, left and right, and the blue eyeball turned over and drilled into the man's head. Everyone could only see a big white eyeball.

When seeing this scene, many people took a deep breath.

Most people didn't know his identity, but everyone was sure that this was definitely the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

It was normal for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor to change every year. There was no new face on the professor's desk just now. The only person who could arrive at this time was the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and it couldn't be anyone else (King Li).

After the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor arrived, he talked to Dumbledore for a few words, and then found an empty seat to sit down.

Then he took out a knife from his pocket, poked it into one end of a sausage, and started eating.

His normal eye was staring at the sausage, but the blue eye was still turning around in the eye socket, looking at the hall and the students.

Many young wizards were complaining in their hearts, even if the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was a one-year-old.

You can't find such a thing!

You can tell at a glance that this is not a normal person.

I have heard that Dumbledore went back to Azkaban to find the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. It seems that this rumor is not false. This new professor must have come from there.

"Please allow me to introduce our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher," Dumbledore happily broke the silence, "Professor Moody."

Under normal circumstances, when a new teacher meets everyone, everyone will applaud to welcome him, but now, except for Dumbledore and Hagrid, no teacher or student applauded.

Compared to Lupin at the beginning, it is even more shabby.

Of course, MoodyI don't care.

He ignored the big can of pumpkin juice on the table, reached into his travel cloak, took out a curved wine bottle, and took a big sip.

When Ethan saw this, he knew that this should still be a fake Moody.

What he drank now was most likely Polyjuice Potion. The potion was put in the wine bottle so that it could be drunk at any time.

Seeing this, Dumbledore also gave up the idea of ​​introducing Moody, cleared his throat immediately, and continued the topic that had just been interrupted.

"In the next few months, we will be very honored to host a very exciting event that has not been held for more than a century. The Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year."

Then Dumbledore introduced the Triwizard Tournament to everyone.

And emphasized that only those who are over 17 years old, that is, adults in the wizarding world, can sign up for the Triwizard Tournament. .
